<p>I don't think it is confusing if people find their way to the right place it is pretty straightforward.</p>

<div dir="ltr">I think thats the link that started this thread. Jason/Hannah/I had collaborated on the announcement there.
<div>The concern you, Lan and Ken had raised was that it linked to the CFP which didn't mention UpSCALE instructions specifically.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was hoping for specific edits or feedback on how we can address your concerns on the CFP page being confusing.</div>

<p>Hi...</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Jason Hibbits already put up a notice about the UpSCaLE talks on Monday. It is right on the main page with a link to more detailed information about it. <a href="https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/blog/call-lightning-talks" class="m_7979328393850679262OWAAutoLink" id="m_7979328393850679262LPlnk388059" target="_blank">https://www.<wbr>socallinuxexpo.org/blog/call-<wbr>lightning-talks</a></p>
<p>The only suggestion I would have for this is adding that the slide deck is to have 20 slides and that they will be automatically advanced at the rate of one every 15 seconds.</p>
<p><br>

<p>I've done a couple of UpSCALE talks in the past. I looked on past years pages but couldn't find the old instructions. I do remember it was Gareth's project and that we had to get our slide deck to him by a certain deadline so he could get the whole thing
ready to go before the event. Also, as I recall, we only needed to submit a title in advance (maybe with a clarifying sub-title). The deadline to get the decks in was very close to the actual opening of SCaLE.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>It seems having a separate instruction for it this year might clarify it for folks. You should be able to fit in 7 - 8 talks (that is what was done in prior years).</p>
